Pedal EX
If you have a Layer tone (p. 54) selected, the original tone is

played together with the original tone.
The volume of the layer tone is adjusted according to how
much you press the pedal.

When “Harps Choir” are selected
• Playing the keyboard without pressing the pedal Only the
harpsichord tone is played.
• Playing the keyboard while pressing the pedal
When the pedal is not pressed, only the harpsichord tone is
played, while the choir tone gradually comes in as the
pedal is pressed. The volume of the choir tone is adjusted
according to how much you press the pedal.
NOTE
No effects will be applied
with “Pedal EX” function
assigned to the pedal if any
tone other than the layer
tone is selected.
